Synopsis

 struct utrace_engine * engine,
 enum utrace_resume_action action);
 

Arguments

pid

engine

attached engine to affect

enum utrace_resume_action for thread to do

Description

This is the same as utrace_control, but takes a struct pid pointer rather than a struct task_struct pointer. The caller must hold a ref on pid, but does not need to worry about the task staying valid. If it's been reaped so that pid points nowhere, then this call returns -ESRCH.
